The Horn Chai Summer Kit
The Only Chai That Matters. From Our Stove to Yours.
Everything You Need to Start
You don't need a fancy setup to make real chai. You need good tea, the right spices, a strainer, and something to pour it into. That's the whole kit.
This is how we make chai in Somali homes: boiled hot, brewed strong, and full of spice. No powders. No syrups. No shortcuts. Just bold Kenyan CTC black tea and a spice blend we grew up on — plus the tools to brew it right from day one.
The same chai we serve daily at The Horn in Nashville, now yours to brew at home. Hot in the morning, iced by the afternoon.
What's Inside
2 × bags of The Horn chai (serves 52 cups)
1 × stainless steel fine-mesh strainer
1 × The Horn tumbler 20oz — keeps it cold for hours, built for summer chai on the go
$ 80 value — yours for $65.
Why Kenyan Tea?
We source our black tea from the Kenyan highlands, where rich soil and cool climates create bold, brisk flavor. CTC (Crush-Tear-Curl) tea brews quickly, delivers deep color, and pairs perfectly with spices.
It's not as malty as Assam. Not as floral as Darjeeling. It's balanced, bold, and perfect for Somali chai — and it holds its own over ice.
Brew It The Horn Way
Mix 2 cups water
Add 2 tablespoons of chai mix
Bring to a boil, then simmer
Strain and sweeten
Make It Iced
Brew it strong, let it cool, pour it over ice in your tumbler. Oat milk if that's your thing. Take it to work, the park, wherever the day goes.
